{winter fun}

Hi there...
Just thought I would share a couple photos from this past weekend!!
Remember how I said....I am DETERMINED to get out there and enjoy winter?!!?
Well this past weekend....my huband, myself and our friends bundled up and went up to St. Joe, MI to watch a dog parade!!
Silly, huh?!?!? But it was SOOOO much fun. In fact, we might try and enter our dogs for next year:) but they would probably act up too much~

There was every kind of dog you could imagine! They were all sooo cute~
Of course, we had to watch santa come to town in the fire truck~I don't know what it is but parades just really make me feel like a kid all over again. There is just something so magical about them and well, when they include dogs it's even more fun:)

My friend and I being silly with the snowman.I tell you...if I didn't know any better i'd say we were long, lost sisters. I love her because she is always just as silly as I am!!
Notice Lake Michigan in the background....I think there is just something so wrong about looking at water when there's SNOW on the ground!!But then again....a little vino and a frosty beer and all is ok again:)

Hope you all have a super happy week!! Remember life is short...so get out there and ENJOY it:)

  1. what a fun weekend! good for you for trying to enjoy winter. I wish I would have done more of that when i lived in south bend.

    I love St. Joe Michigan. Thanks for your kind words about Meta.

  2. Great girlfriends are the best things!

    Looks like you had a blast, and there is nothing like a little vino to top of a good old fashioned doggie parade (if they had a parade like that here I would totally go to it!)

  3. You're truly determined to go out there! It is inspiring, but I'm reluctant to leave my cozy home..., and only do so on weekends for grocery shopping and power walking!

    I'm hanging out inside today - a foot of snow tells me so. :)

    That one big beer your bestie is drinking!
